MIGRAINES
Patricia:  I used to suffer from chronic migraines, back pain and pain in my left foot.  I always pass this office on my way to work and looked up the website online for more information.  After looking at the testimonials on the website, I chose the office for chiropractic care.  I was skeptical about chiropractic years ago, but after seeing the results and benefit it brought to my horse (I am a veterinarian), I decided to give it a shot.  I knew I didn’t want to live my life in pain or on chronic medications.  I tried migraine medications and aspirin to relieve the pain, with limited results.  Overall, before starting chiropractic care, my health could be described as good with minor pains.  I had migraines occasionally, about once a month, but wasn’t really someone who got sick a lot.  Within 24 hours of starting under chiropractic care, I noticed a difference in some aspects of my health, and within 3-4 visits, I noticed a huge difference in my entire body.  I’ve had wonderful results from chiropractic—I am pretty much migraine-free and with routine adjustments, my foot and back pain is non-existent.  Since starting chiropractic care, I’ve started becoming more aware of my body and can tell when I need an adjustment.  I’ve also become healthier in my eating habits by trying to eat more “whole” foods.  I would MOST DEFINITELY recommend chiropractic to others!

Tracy: Before starting chiropractic care, I was having 4-5 migraines a month, some that would last for 2 days.  I would take medicine for them, which sometimes produced results and other times left me suffering for days.  My overall health was good, but the migraines were a constant issue.  I was skeptical about chiropractic because of all the negative feedback that seems to be out there about the profession.  However, I have had NO MIGRAINES (knock on wood) since beginning chiropractic care.  I noticed this almost immediately!  I have since brought my son in for ear infections and have learned of all the other wonderful benefits of chiropractic care.  I ABSOLUTELY recommend chiropractic care to others!

EAR INFECTIONS:
Rylen (as written by his mom): My mom brought me to see Dr. Pam because I was having recurring ear infections and was looking at the possibility of having to get tubes in my ears.  Antibiotics weren’t working for me.  A friend of my mom’s had a daughter with similar problems and they had success avoiding tubes in the ears and decreasing her ear infections after chiropractic treatment.  About a month (or less) after starting up my own chiropractic care, the excess fluid is almost gone from my ears and I haven’t had any ear infections.  The ENT also said I didn’t need tubes in my ears anymore!  Both my mom and I absolutely recommend chiropractic to other people—Dr. Pam is the best!

Caleb (as written by his mom): My son (Caleb) had recurring ear infections, for which he was constantly on antibiotics that never seemed to work.  We grew tired of medicating our son when he just didn’t improve from it.  It took about 3 weeks after starting chiropractic care to notice an improvement in Caleb.  Before he started getting adjusted, Caleb was very fussy, wouldn’t nap, and wouldn’t sleep longer than 1½  hours at a time during the night.  Now, he is off all antibiotics for his ears and is finally starting to sleep through the night again.  We have our happy, smiling son back!  He naps each day and sleeps 10-12 hours a night—and mom and dad have (some) of their sanity back!  At first I was skeptical about chiropractic because I wasn’t sure if it would really make a difference, but a recommendation from a friend and literature she brought me about pediatric chiropractic and how it can help ear infections in babies helped get me into the office.  I now recommend chiropractic to others!

HEADACHES
Eric: I used to have neck pain and a few headaches each week before I started chiropractic care.  I wasn’t skeptical about chiropractic before I started coming to the office, more like uninformed.  Within a week or two of starting chiropractic care, my pain was greatly reduced as well as my headaches.  Before, I would take medicine to reduce the pain, but the relief was only temporary and only reduced the symptoms as opposed to correcting the problem.  My wife goes to Dr. Pam’s office, which made me decide to come here.  Before starting care, I had good health, but now it’s better and I’m not as stiff.  I would recommend chiropractic to others.

PREGNANCY
Tonya: My mom and dad swore by Dr. Pam and her work and told me I should start coming into the office with my son. My experience with chiropractic care has been wonderful—Dr. Pam has adjusted me throughout my whole pregnancy and I feel great! Within a few adjustments, I started noticing improvements in my health: I stand straight without leaning on one foot, I don’t have nearly as many headaches, and I haven’t had any aches or pains through my pregnancy. Because my parents told me that this office was such a family friendly environment and that they felt right at home, I decided to give chiropractic a chance, even though I was a bit skeptical about it because I didn’t know much about the profession. I thought I was doing just fine before starting care, but I feel so much better now! I recommend chiropractic care to everyone!

Kelly: I was a couple of months pregnant and had hip problems, so when my husband referred me for chiropractic care, I decided to try it out. Since starting, I have relief in my neck and hip pain, and my low back never hurt during my pregnancy, which I attribute to chiropractic care. I saw different improvements in my health throughout my pregnancy—it was on-going. Before starting care, my overall health was good, though I had more sinus problems then. Now, I haven’t had as many sinus headaches. I recommend chiropractic to others!

WELLNESS CARE
Brian: I was highly recommended to this office by a friend, who is a current patient of Dr. Pam’s.  I was skeptical of chiropractic’s ability to replace regular doctor’s visits, but it’s true – it can!  Within the first week of starting care, I noticed an improvement in my health.  Before I started getting adjusted, my health was good, with just a few sicknesses per year, but now I have better posture, less sickness, and overall greater health.  I used to get aches during and after playing drums or bass guitar for hours on end, but due to better posture and correct alignment, my aches have totally disappeared.  I would definitely recommend chiropractic to others because it allows your body to do what it needs to do!

Keith: I wanted complete, all-around body care and optimal health, which is why I started coming to the office.  I really chose to come into the office based on Dr. Pam’s articles on chiropractic care and sports performance, as well as testimonials from athletes on her website.  For years, I was skeptical about chiropractic care, but after reading and hearing about these testimonials, I have changed my mind.  I started noticing an improvement in my posture, as well as an all-around greater sense of well-being within the first 2 weeks of care.  I would recommend chiropractic to others!

SPORTS: 
Amber: I was having problems with my shoulder and then hip, which was affecting my training and exercise regimen.  Since I wasn’t going to stop exercising, I had to try something.  I would try to take time off from upper body work, which would let my shoulder relax and not hurt, but it would start right back up again when I got back into my training…and then my legs started hurting, which was bad news.  I saw Dr. Pam’s ad in the Tri-Atlanta newsletter and since she had a great deal for the first visit, I decided to give it a try.  I wasn’t skeptical about chiropractic, I just didn’t think of it as a solution to my problems.  About a month after starting care, I began to see results.  It took time for my muscles to comprehend what my spine was doing and get used to the adjustments.  Now my legs hurt less, my shoulder is progressively getting better, I have an overall better feeling of health, my digestive system has been improving, and I’m an overall happier person!  I do recommend chiropractic to others, though it’s a little hard to convince them that it can help with ANY problem/illness that they have. 

Jo: I was looking for a reputable chiropractor and Dr. Pam was mentioned through a trusted source.  I also saw her ad in the Georgia Multi Sports Newsletter.  My health was very poor at the time--I had a severe knee problem that gave me a lot of pain, which had been going on for about a year.  I ended up getting orthopedic surgery on it and was on medicine that ended up being recalled.  I was also having inner ear issues for about 8 months, which weren't resolving with medication or by visiting an ENT specialist.  After my second week of care, I began to see improvements and I've had tremendous benefits!  For the first time in a year, my knee wasn't throbbing and I no longer felt the pain that I've been struggling with for some time.  I just started back on my triathlon training and I'm able to do this without pain, thanks to Dr. Pam.  My ear issue has also improved.  I'm skeptical about everything and when I researched chiropractic last year, I thought of it as a last resort.  The problem is that chiropractic care should have been my FIRST resort.  I truly believe that my knee issues could have been resolved without the surgery and unecessary medications.  I recommend that everyone should receive chiropractic care on a regular basis.  I'm very pleased with my results! 

TORTICOLLIS:
Holly (writing about her son): I’ve been going to chiropractors since high school, but since my son Sam was diagnosed with torticollis, we asked a different chiropractor for the name of a chiropractor with pediatric experience.  I saw an improvement in Sam right away after he begun care with Dr. Pam.  He is straighter and stronger with each visit and continues to improve with regular visits—I think that is the key.  We also go to a physical therapist, and I believe that it complements the care when combined with the chiropractic.  Sam’s neck is much improved—it is straighter and he has also never been sick.  I thought his health was pretty good before chiropractic, but I know he has been better since starting care, with no health problems.  I think everyone can benefit from chiropractic care.

Ashley (writing about her son): My son Jace was born with torticollis in his neck.  Having a dad that is a chiropractor, I knew that chiropractic would help Jace and was referred to Dr. Pam because she’s known for her work with children.  Within a week, Jace was getting better!  He’s started sleeping better, is much happier, his acid reflux is gone, and his head is MUCH straighter!  We were taking Jace to a physical therapist before we brought him to Dr. Pam, but there were no results until he started getting adjusted here.  I recommend chiropractic to others.

ADD/ADHD:
Deborah: My son had behavior issues, such as hitting, violence, and not listening to his teachers or parents.  We’d tried several different resources (our family doctor really did nothing, the neurologist did nothing and gave us some herbal supplements, and the psychologist told us to change schools, which was a nightmare and made the problem worse) -- all no positive results.  I read an advertisement that Dr. Pam would be giving a presentation at Life Grocery on ADHD and attended, which got me into the office.  After 3-4 weeks, the results are unbelievable!  My son listens 99% of the time, there is NO violence, he has more energy, he sleeps better, he has better behavior, and his teacher states that he’s one of the best students in his pre-K class.  His health before getting adjusted regularly was not great, but now it’s excellent!  I would DEFINITELY recommend chiropractic to others—my son is a new child thanks to Dr. Pam!

BACK PAIN:
Sonya: I met Dr. Pam at a school fair in Woodstock and after a reasonable explaination about how my bones and nervous system works, and seeing how well Dr. Pam talked with my daughter, I decided to come into the office.  I was suffering bad low and mid back pain before I started coming into the office, for which my “doctor” just gave me pain killers and ibuprofen, as well as a pill that made me sleep a lot.  I would go to bed with the pain and wake up with it again the next morning.  After a month of chiropractic care, I got one of the best Christmas gifts —improvement!  All my bad physical and emotional feelings went away I felt happier to live and meet the other great people here in the office.  Not only did my physical health change, but also my attitude.  I feel more relaxed and less ogre-ish, and I exercise more and drink TONS of water.  I feel stronger and more open-minded.  There was a point in time after starting care that, for reasons not under my control, I stopped coming in for awhile.  I started smoking again during that time, but when I got back into the office, I made the choice to feed myself with chiropractic care and not tobacco.  I now feel less stress and take it easier.  I was skeptical about chiropractic before coming to the office—people told me chiropractors stole your money and cheated you, but how can it be cheating if you’re feeling better and improving?  You pay for care, but you get paid back with health!  I recommend chiropractic to others!

CAR ACCIDENT:
Sonia: I came into the office after a car accident and noticed immediate relief from headaches and pain—it was instantaneous!  I also saw improvement as time went by, however, in my all-around wellness and just an overall feeling that I’m functioning properly.  I was getting massage to relieve the tension in my muscles and was concerned about avoiding prescription drugs.  I was glad to find out that not only did Dr. Pam respect my wishes, but that she also felt the same way!  Before starting care, I felt “out-of whack,” but now I sleep better, have more energy, and have my emotions in balance.  Intuition made me choose this office—it just stood out to me and looked very welcoming.  I was very pleased to find that image was correct!  I recommend chiropractic to others all the time!
